Scribe’s List of Demands From the NHL and the Kings, In Addition to an Apology

I have put together a list. I suggest you do too. The NHL wants to apologize to me? The LA Kings want to as well? That’s nice. Not good enough. You put me through sheer hell. That comes with a price.

These are my list of demands.

– John Hoven will be hired as the L.A. Kings Insider. I had to suffer for how many years through Rich Hammond? I curse far too much, Surly can’t write a paragraph without inserting an analogy about a female body part, clearly the best and most logical choice is John. He is a journalist, he has great hockey acumen and he has paid his dues.

– I want to know exactly how drunk Quickie was at the parade. How many beers did he have, what beer was he drinking and how did he stop? Did he just…pass out? This is important to me.

– David Courtney’s voice will forever announce the team’s entrance onto the ice. “Ladies and Gentleman, your Los Angeles Kings!” will be David and David only.

– For one day each year, during the season or playoffs, Surly and I are given full control of the L.A. Kings Twitter account.

My hope is that the Kings do not “stick it to us” non season seat holders with crazy high face values for opening day. I want to see the banner raised without paying an obscene face value ticket price. I bought a ticket on ticketmaster for game six 6/11/12 that was $700 FACE VALUE! I’m still glad I was there, but geesh!

Replica of Stanley Cup given out to everyone who attends the first game….I am thinking full size here and in sterling silver….EXACT replica! No silly useless key chain or fanfold piece of paper. I don’t think that is too much to ask?

I wish I had thought of it as soon as the lockout started and acted accordingly.
I should have created a list of teams owners and their other business’ so we could try to rally a boycott. (Website with info, whom to boycott and hurt)

I think it would be the only way they could feel the hurt. (assuming we could have rounded up support/following) Only because they “claim” losses, so obviously this is not their main source of income.

They need to kick back to the business’ and workers they have hurt.
The fans will recover, we always do. But the lives the NHL/Owners fucked in the process cannot be undone for the low wage workers.
